Baby it's summer 
Ya baby it's summer
Ya baby it's summer it's summer it's summer

We've been trying to hold our patience
We've been waiting for so long
I can't wait to see you shining
As we sit and watch the flame grow strong

And every little thing that you say now
I feel it 
I see it 
You speak it
I need it
And baby it's summer 

Baby it's summer

We've been waiting for this feeling 
We gave everything we could 
And now that we can see it comin 
We'll get everything we should 

I'm glad that I'm not here without you 
I feel it 
I see it 
You speak it
I need it
And baby it's summer
Baby it's summer 

I can see it in the water 
As you walk upon the shore
I can feel it in the sunlight
There's something more we're living for 

It feels good, cause we always believed it
It feels right, cause we always could see it
Baby it's summer
It's summer

Baby, It's Summer

Sweet Girl

A Little Bit Closer

Lyrics: 
What I take away from every word you say
Is that there's only you and me 
Though I live without it
I still think about it 
But it's just so hard to see
The way it used to be

I saw it flash before my eyes
And now you see it too        
I felt like I was paralyzed      
When I thought it was comin true
I find it hard to talk about it 
Just as much as you 
But it's been so long that we start to doubt it
and we lose what we once knew
It's so hard to see 
The way it used to be

You wore your hair down low
You moved up real slow
And you told me that you wanna dance
There was a look in your eye
And I just let out a sigh
Cause I knew you were meant for me 
 
Those were the days of old 
Now we've packed up and sold
Everything that we held dear
I didn't wish it so 
But I want you to know
That I'll be waiting here
So I can always see
The way it used to be

You gave me strength when I'd need it
You took my soul and you freed it 
I swore that I'd do right by you 
But now it's slippin away 
And I have no words to say
Cause I can see you've thought this through

I made a costly choice 
And couldn't hear your voice
And I guess I'll pay the price
Thought I'd been strung along
Now I know I was wrong 
I wish that I thought twice  
'Bout how it used to be 
The way it used to be

The Way it Used To Be

Cocaine/The Grandest Canyon/Getaway Man (Heidecker and Wood medley)

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

I was kickin around in my head
While my baby had a sad dress on
I didn't notice that the colors had bled
My baby had a sad dress on 

She is so sweet, but she dressed it all up 
In red satin and silk chiffon
One look at her and I was lost
I didn't see she had the sad dress on

My baby had a sad dress, a sad dress on
My baby had a sad dress on
I didn't know why 
She had that look in her eye
Until I saw the sad dress on

The years passed by and I thought things were fine
But she became more withdrawn
I'd see it in her eyes, but then I'd rationalize 
She kept putting that sad dress on

I finally knew when she broke down and cried
And said she wished to be gone
I finally felt all the weight of her words
And saw she had that sad dress on

My baby had a sad dress, a sad dress on
My baby had a sad dress on
I didn't know why 
She had that look in her eye
Until I saw the sad dress on
Until I saw she had the sad dress on 

Sad Dress

You've got me hangin from your halo 
You just smile cause you don't mind 
You paint a picture, you quote your scripture 
Soon you'll make your whole world blind 

You can say what you will, you can force down the pill 
You can find each and every desire 
If they do what you say, you'll still take it away 
And you'll look to me to point the finger, so I won't linger 

You're watching as I gasp for air 
While you wear everything you stole 
You're in my head and now you've said what 
I've been thinking all along 

That there's nowhere to go, and you'll keep up the show 
I guess the situation's getting dire 
Now I'm clawing the rope, cause I've lost all the hope 
That I'll be wrapped around your finger, so I won't linger 

Every night I think about your face inside that frame 
Locked inside a purgatory, where you've forgotten your name 
And when I'm walking in those halls, I cannot hear my voice 
Surrounded by the deadened walls and robbed of my own choice 

But you gave me somethin to believe in 
You held my head when I was grievin' 
And now those days are gone, and you belong to 
The eyes who can't see your face 

And every move that you wish to make 
Lies on a tortured path 
Where every thought that you try to shake 
Will turn and show it's wrath 
It will linger 

I wanted you to hold me down 
While you wound the noose and tied 
A face of lead, my fingers bled 
I just hung my head and cried 

I was feeding the blame 
I was tending the flame 
I was taking it down to the wire 

And you gave up the ghost 
When you wanted it most 
Now you look to me to point the finger 
So I won't linger 
No I won't linger

Linger

No, I won't feed the flame 
Cause you're never gonna be the same 
I know it's slippin away from you 
It's getting further every day 

You say that I am wrong 
And I don't hear you now 
Truth is I've been here before 
And now I'll be going away 

Cause I won't feed the flame 
But I never will forget your name 
There was somethin about you 
It's sad it's gotta be this way 

I see it in your eyes 
You saw through my pale disguise 
But darkness now surrounds you 
And you've exposed all of your lies 

No, I won't feed the flame 
No, I won't let you stake your claim 
I've been caught in your web too long 
And now I've learned the tricks of your game 

You wanted me to know 
That you weren't afraid to show 
Everything that was dear to you 
So you could have someone to blame 

So I won't feed the flame 
But I never will forget your name 
You made me finally realize 
What's hidden in every frame
